The default location in FreeBSD, as specified in the default named.conf for a very long time, is /var/run/named/pid. If you choose to deviate from that you need to put the pidfile location in your named.conf file (as you pointed out in your message, and which you should be doing anyway). hth, Doug -- [^L] Breadth of IT experience, and depth of knowledge in the DNS.
